2021 er en "episk" årgang. velegnet til både uimiddelbar nydelse (efter lidt iltning) og til henlæggelse de næste 10-15 år fra nu (2025)
2021 er i en klasse med den monumentale 2016 som blev sådan beskrevet:
“2016…is promising to be one of the all-time great vintages for Barolo… according to every winemaker I've spoken with over the past year and a half, these wines are going to be very special.”
(Tom Hyland, Forbes magazine)
“2016 is the vintage we are all waiting for.”
(Luca Currado, Vietti)
“Early tastings from barrel suggest 2016 will be an exceptional vintage for Barolo in which both quality and production are high. The wines are aromatic, beautifully resonant and highly expressive of site.”
(Antonio Galloni, Vinous)
